In her previous life, Qiao Yu thought Jiang Zhan was mentally unstable; she feared and loathed him. Yet, Jiang Zhan endured endless torture to save her, protecting her until his very last breath.
Chapter 342 Different Codes
After listening to Cheng Sinian's analysis, Qiao Yu felt that it made a lot of sense.
But it also feels a little strange.
This is the survivor base in City G. What kind of things can only a researcher from City B do?
After Qiao Yu raised this question, Cheng Sinian shrugged and said, "We haven't figured this out yet, so we said it was just a guess!"
Qiao Yu pursed her lips and asked, "Besides this, have you found any other information?"
"Yes." Luo Zhenzhen nodded. "We also found out something really strange about Ling Shu."
"Oh? How strange?"
"According to the army, when Ling Shu received the military supplies, he registered two different numbers."
"What?" Qiao Yu paused chewing his apple. "You mean Ling Shu received two pairs of military boots of different sizes?"
"Yes, and the sizes differ by three. One pair is size 42, and the other is size 39." Luo Zhenzhen nodded. "And the subsequent supplies have always been double the different sizes."
"How could this happen?!" Qiao Yu's brows suddenly furrowed. "Don't military supplies have to be collected in person? In this case, doesn't anyone suspect that she's collecting on someone else's behalf?"
When Qiao Yu heard this, his first reaction was that Ling Shu had collected the supplies on behalf of someone else.
However, the military supplies of the Legion are strictly managed and there are records of their distribution. Especially in the last days when supplies are in short supply, the military will never allow such phenomena of collecting on behalf of others or impersonating others to occur.
Why can Ling Shu still get it?
Upon hearing Qiao Yu's question, Cheng Sinian sighed and shook his head. "The strange thing is that she's not acting as leader. I heard from the army that it's because Ling Shu's two feet are different sizes."
"When receiving military supplies, normally everyone receives two identical shipments at once. But Ling Shu is very special. The sizes of her two feet are so different, so we had no choice but to give her shoes of different sizes."
"That's really weird." Qiao Yu was slightly stunned. "I've heard of people with different foot sizes, but I've never heard of such a big difference!"
"We found it strange, too. But they said they measured it on the spot, and Ling Shu definitely has one foot that's a size 42 and the other a size 39."
Qiao Yu's expression became complicated for a moment. He began to think carefully about the time he saw Ling Shu's feet before, and whether there was one big and one small.
But after thinking about it, Qiao Yu didn't have any clear memories.
Because in my memory, Ling Shu's pants were always loose, even jeans were loose and long flared jeans, and the trouser legs would completely cover the heels of her shoes, so it was easy for people to ignore her feet.
So...is she trying to hide this secret?
but……
"That doesn't eliminate her suspicion either." Qiao Yu pursed her lips. "Didn't you say before that the half footprint found in front of Huayue's biological mother's room was between size 41 and 43?"
"42 is right within this range."
"But..." Cheng Sinian sighed again, "That footprint is from the right foot, but Ling Shu... the size 42 foot is from the left foot."
"What?" Qiao Yu frowned. "So... our previous speculations were all wrong? That mysterious person isn't Ling Shu?"
"But when we mentioned Chu Yi, her expression was definitely wrong. And that fake Li Wencai was indeed brought back by her..."
"No, that's not right. I always feel like there's something wrong with Ling Shu."
Cheng Sinian threw the apple core into the trash can, then wiped his hands with a tissue. "We're also baffled, so we're here to discuss this with you."
"It seems that our recent focus is on this Ling Shu."
--
Huayue, Wangzha and the thugs only came back at night.
When Hua Yue entered the room, Qiao Yu and others had already prepared the food and were waiting for her to come back for dinner.
Wang Zha hadn't seen Qiao Yu all day. When he saw Qiao Yu, his tail was wagging to the sky. He ran to Qiao Yu happily, rubbing and licking him, making Qiao Yu giggle.
Compared to Wang Zha, the thugs seem much quieter.
It squatted obediently on the side, just watching Wang Zha acting coquettishly, and no one knew what it was thinking.
"Yueyue is back?" Qiao Yu held the king bomb and did not forget to greet Huayue. He waved at Huayue and said, "Come and eat. I'm starving."
Hua Yue felt warm in her heart when she saw this.
Ever since her grandparents passed away, she has never experienced the feeling of being waited for to eat with someone.
Hua Yue didn't dare to delay and trotted over, saying softly, "Actually, you don't have to wait for me..."
"How can that be possible?!" Qiao Yu leaned over and prepared food for Wang Zha and the thugs, saying half-jokingly and half-seriously, "You're going to be a scout for us, and that's a big responsibility. You haven't eaten yet, so how can we eat first?"
Hua Yue was amused by Qiao Yu and said nothing more. After Qiao Yu came to the table, she lowered her head and began to eat quietly.
"Yueyue, did anything happen at the research institute this afternoon?"
Hua Yue shook her head upon hearing this. "Nothing happened. Ah Chuan kept staring at the fake Li Wencai, and I was secretly following him, but he didn't make any moves, and he didn't communicate much with Ling Shu. He looked like he was really listening to the seminar attentively."
"Oh?" Qiao Yu raised an eyebrow. "Then what is today's research project?"
"It's a project related to mutant wheat."
"Huh?" Several people were slightly stunned when they heard this.
"Why did we tell him about the mutant wheat project?" Cheng Sinian frowned, looking a little puzzled. "Didn't Ah Chuan say anything?"
Hua Yue shook her head again, "It wasn't the hospital that told him that, he asked himself."
"He asked himself? You mean he knew about the mutant wheat project before?"
"Yes." Hua Yue nodded, "He took the initiative to ask to attend the seminar on this project today."
"Tsk." Cheng Sinian smacked his lips. "I guess Ling Shu told him."
"But this also indirectly proves that this fake Li Wencai should also be a researcher, and most likely also studying plants."
"Otherwise, how could ordinary people understand this?"
Qiao Yu deeply agreed with Cheng Sinian's point of view. He kept thinking about the researchers who studied plants in the survivor base in City B in his previous life, trying to see if he could guess who this "Li Wencai" was.
However, this person has changed his appearance, concealed his original body shape, and most likely even disguised his voice. In this case, it is still difficult to guess his identity.
